Patent number: 11634869Abstract: The present invention provides multi-ply creped tissue products, and in particular embodiments creped wet pressed tissue products, having substantially higher per-ply basis weights, such as from about 20 to about 30 gsm, without the negative effects often associated with higher basis weight. As such, the tissue products are generally soft and flexible, having a softness value (measured as TS7) less than about 12.0 and a Stiffness Index less than about 20. While being soft and flexible, the instant tissue products are durable enough to withstand use, such as having a GMT greater than about 600 g/3? and a Burst Index greater than about 12.0.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2021Date of Patent: April 25, 2023Assignee: Kimberly-Clark Worldwide, Inc.Inventors: Oriol Margo Moreno, John Alexander Werner, IV, Steven J.
